Default Cluth Levers

Hi,

I want to get a adjustable clutch lever, I see the article about the GPZ lever but would a sv1000s lever fit my sv650s?

No.

The 1000 has an hydraulic clutch.

If you want the lever closer to the bar than just back the cable off a bit, don't go too far or the clutch won't lift fully.

I have tried but it doesnt feel right, I would prefer a adjustable rather than bending the lever

Don't bend the lever

Just slacken the cable adjustment off a bit.

Sid,
I can slacken the adjustment on the lever no more, it is completely in.

My wife had the same problem on her K4 SVS. Having small hands she couldn't reach the lever properly.

I replaced the black clutch lever clamp with one from a GSXR, and then bought a CRG adjustable lever to fit the GSXR clamp. It's five span adjusable and looks well trick.
